Could someone please verify a portion of this configuration? Thank you.

Hi,

I am more of a network administrator than Cisco networking guru, so when I saw these settings for a server, I was a bit thrown since the gateway is seemingly on a different network, although it works. I am primarily concerned with interface FastEthernet0/1 and if it is configured correctly. I would have thought the mask would be 255.255.0.0, but since there are multiple IPs for the one interface in the router config, maybe it is correct? I am including a sanitized router config: I have adjusted the first two octets in a standardized manner to protect my client in case there are any issues with security, and used xxx's over unimportant information. Thank you very much in advance.

The server had these settings:

IP address 61.126.196.5/255.255.255.0 Gateway 61.126.195.1

Router config:

I believe your server also has additional IP address from 61.126.195.0/24 network, otherwise this configuration would fail... Actually, server would not allow you to enter default gateway from network he is not directly connected to (if we're talking about Windows).

The Windows Server 2003 does allow it, but it does give you a warning message asking you if you really want to do that.
